I could smell these satays cooking long before I saw them. The unmistakeable scent of charcoal wafting through the Hong Gai locals’ market in Halong City called out and I was utterly powerless to resist. #halongbay #halongcity #hongai #halongbayvietnam #satay #foodie #foodieporn #instafoodie #vietnam #lovevietnam #flybamboo #flcresorts #travelmore #traveldeeper #traveler #traveller #executivetraveller #repeattraveller
It’s my third time visiting Halong Bay, but my first staying in the city. So, why not do it in style?! FLC Halong Bay is a five star luxury hotel perched on the hill above Halong City. It’s vast, with 649 rooms angled to take advantage of the island views, or the hotel’s 18 hole golf course. I’m not a big golfer (mini golf is more my style) but the view from the 12th hole is spectacular! #halongbay #halongbayvietnam #vietnam #lovevietnam #flchotels #instatravel #travelgram #travelstoke #traveler #traveling #instatraveling #hotels #luxuryhotels #fivestarstyle #flchotelsresorts #executivetraveller #repeattraveller
Halong has it been since I last visited Halong Bay? Too long. This shot is taken from the bridge in downtown Halong City, where the fishing fleet returns to moor each afternoon. #halongbay #halong #halongbayvietnam #vietnam #lovevietnam #fishing #fishingboat #instatravel #travelgram #travelstoke #executivetraveller #repeattraveller #flybamboo #flcresorts
I’m so excited, and I just can’t hide it. Naturally, I had to stop for the classic departure photo at Sydney Airport. Let’s do this thing. #repeattraveller #sydneyairport #travel #instatravel
Cape Byron Distillery - makers of Brookie’s Gin - is now B Corp Certified. That means the business meets the highest international standards for sustainability, transparency and accountability, not only for their strong environmental practices, but their workforce and many other factors too. They are just the second distillery in Australia to do so. We spent a fun morning exploring the rainforest at Cape Byron Distillery with Pamela and Martin Brook, founders of local icons Brookfarm (makers of premium macadamia products, like delicious muesli), and parents of distillery founder Eddie, yesterday. Located on the couple’s property just outside Byron Bay, we learned about the amazing rainforest regeneration efforts they’ve undertaken onsite over the last 30 years, and how that process led them on the journey to achieving B Corp certification. We tasted all of their incredible spirits too, including the classic Brookie’s Byron Dry Gin and Mac macadamia liqueur. Cape Byron Distillery run regular tours of their tasting room, rainforest and distillery. Keep an eye on our blog for more soon. #byronbay #byron #byronlife #capebyrondistillery #gin #gintonic #distillery #distilleries #bcorp #bcorpcertified #sustainability #sustainabilitymatters #foodie #byronfoodies #ginlovers #whiskylover #instatravel #travelgram #travelstoke #repeattraveller
Beautiful one day, perfect the next. The Gold Coast is living up to its sparkling reputation at the ‘Aussies’ Australian Surf Life Saving Championships. #goldcoast #qld #thisisqueensland #aussies2022 #surflifesaving #playgoldcoast #lifesaver #instatravel #travelgram #travelstoke #repeattraveller
We all have that one *delicious* dish we always order when returning to a favourite restaurant. That’s the sashimi tacos at Yamagen for me. One tuna, one salmon, both drizzled with some spicy Japanese mayonnaise = heaven. Bonus points for the amazing cocktails too. #yamagen #qtgoldcoast #qthotels #goldcoast #goldcoastlife #sashimi #tacos #foodie #foodiegram #instafoodie #foodporn #japanesefood #travelgram #traveltheworld #traveldeeper #foodlover #goldcoastfoodie #repeattraveller
QT Gold Coast, aka our second home, is continuing the roll out a refurbishment across all of its rooms. The latest is this sexy Ocean View King. It’s an elevated take on the hotel’s original style, bringing it into line with the Suite upgrade from early last year. We didn’t realise we’d be staying in this room when we booked for Eurovision last year, so it’s a happy accident! #qthotels #qtgoldcoast #hoteldesign #design #goldcoast #queensland #thisisqueensland #goldcoast #travelgram #travelstoke #instatravel #traveller #travelwriter #repeattraveller #executivetraveller #playgoldcoast #astw_inc
Travel is back, baby! It’s so good to be at the annual TravMedia IMM event - in person - down at the Sydney ICC on Darling Harbour. There is such joy and positivity for the travel industry. Onwards and upwards in 2022! #travmedia #immaus #iccsydney #sydney #repeattraveller #astw_inc
You’ll have to bear with me as I slowly rediscover the city. George Street has been a dusty construction site every visit for almost 10 years. Now, the light rail network is complete - and it’s so nice to finally see it up and running. Props to the City of Sydney for getting into the Mardi Gras spirit too #sydney #thisissydney #sydneylightrail #visitnsw #feelNSW #traveller #instatraveler #goneAWOL #travelphotography #streetphotography #travelgram #instatravels #repeattraveller #mural #murals #streetart #streetartsydney #sydneymardigras
Gooood morning Sydney!! Almost two years to the day since my last visit. So much has changed, but I hear you’re still as wonderful as ever. #sydney #nsw #seeaustralia #astw_inc #sydneyharbour #rexairlines #rexperienceau #outtheplanewindow #instatravel #travelgram #travelstoke #saab340 #repeattraveller #feelNSW
It’s scenes like this that remind me of the transformational power of art. This dingy, rundown old building has been given a new lease on life #lismore #lismorensw #backalleyartgallery #streetart #streetartphotography #graffitiart #art #instaart #instaartexplorer #mural #murals #instatraveller #travelingram #traveldeeper #exploremore #repeattraveller
